Diesel, A Bookstore in Oakland presents another installment of the always excellent Poetry Flash, featuring Maxine Hong Kingston and James Ragan, on Sunday, September 11th at 3pm. Maxine Hong Kingston's new book is a memoir-in-verse, I Love a Broad Margin to My Life. Her previous memoirs and books of fiction include The Woman Warrior, China Men, Tripmaster Monkey, and The Fifth Book of Peace. James Ragan's new book of poems is Too Long A Solitude, which C.K. Williams has praised as "fine-grained, a remarkable range of history."
